Triceps The muscles at the back of the upper arm are called "Triceps". These are on the opposite side of the biceps. They are used when the arm is straightened or to push objects. The triceps are 2/3rds of the whole arm, which is more of a common problem area for women than men. Usually called the chicken wing or flabby arm, the triceps is one of the most common areas women want to tighten or firm up. Using a combination of exercises to target the three areas is the most efficient and beneficial for training the triceps. For the belly of the triceps any pushing movement is key for building mass and density. For the outer triceps any semi-circular movement is needed for proper separation and development, and for the long head or inner triceps, any extension over the head will target this area. Triceps exercises Perform the following triceps workout choosing two exercises for each area performing 2-3 sets with 10-15 reps. For developing the triceps, proper form and control is more important than weight. Avoid any swinging for rocking to get a good burn. Start with weight that is easy to control than build up strength after a few weeks of proper form.
